Welp, I’ve been adding content to the site like a CRAZYwoman. All of my costumes are now online except Kefka (uweee heee hee saving the best for last) and almost all of Cachalot’s are online as well. I think we are waiting on Shadow and Cid. And the photoshoots, or at least one of them, is on track to go online by early weekend.

Here’s a list of the costumes online now—

Cachalot’s costumes:

Osaki Nana
Tifa Lockhart
Suboshi

DancingMad’s costumes:

Byzantine Angel
Baaya
Mozenrath
Judge Q
Fancy Toph
Tasuki

But both of us have been sick the past few days so forgive us for the lag! m(_ _)m We’re doing the best we can. It’s a miracle I’m sitting upright right now honestly xD

Oh, and we’ve decided on the second of our two cosplay groups for 2011. I am so excited I am about to ASPLODE. I am going to wait on announcing it because it’s still a new idea and people might change their minds, but I think it’s really going to happen!! (But, ehm, it’s in the tags if you are super curious…)

We are doing three total groups for 2011, but the third one is all original characters, so I hesitate to call it cosplay But yea, we’re booked through now to 2011 for costumes and already have an idea for 2012. WE ARE CLEARLY INSANE!

But you knew that ;D

Suboshi is DONE all except for his ryuuseisui! It was a good weekend of work, about 5 hours per day, but the outfit came out very solidly and I’m REALLY happy with the orange jumper. It looks fantastic and fits perfectly.

I went and bought some stretchy martial arts handwraps for the yellow wrappings on his arms and legs, and they’re part spandex, so they stretch very nicely and don’t fall down at all. (I’ve been walking around the house with one leg wrapped up in them for about half an hour XD)

Pictures forthcoming after dinner. RA~MEN XDDDDDD

[in progress] Suboshi (Fushigi Yuugi)

Dancing Mad and I have had a Fushigi Yuugi cosplay duo planned out for about 2 years now, but we’ve been sidetracked by other projects. For Halloween this year, we’re really going to finish it! I will be Suboshi to her Tasuki.

This is the blue shirt with the white collar that goes underneath the orange pullover…thing. (whatever you call the orange thing he’s wearing XD) It took me about 5 hours to finish the shirt, but it wasn’t because it was hard, there were just a lot of pieces to cut out and I had to modify a good part of the pattern that I used, which was for a mid-sleeve ladies’ shirt. The blue shirt is a side-tie shirt that will go over drawstring blue pants. I’ve finished the pants, but they aren’t all that exciting so there are no pictures of them.
